Welcome to the website for the History of Art Department
of the University of California, Berkeley. The Department offers excellent undergraduate and graduate training in the history of the visual arts in Western and Asian culture as well as the opportunity to do specialized study in areas of the student's choice. Fundamentally a humanistic inquiry and often multi-disciplinary in approach, the field provides majors with essential training in those perceptual and historical, research and critical skills needed for many specialized professions. Majors frequently go on to careers in business, law, or the arts as well as graduate study in the History of Art and careers in teaching, museum work, and conservation.
